The "problem" as stated is a straw man.  The problem isn't a dilemma.  It's
more of a trilemma, involving THREE things, not two:

1. maintain smoothness.
2. minimize lag.
3. minimize overshoot.

Unfortunately, the Hull Moving Average suffers from overshoot, which is
typical of low-lag smoothers based purely on impulse response functions.

Statistical smoothers, on the other hand, DO balance these three features.
Jurik's moving average (JMA) is one example.
